Ombre Saturday

How was my fellow Canadian's long weekends? Hope it was safe and full of fun. 

This past Saturday Lance and I had a casual day down at 17th Ave just walking around for a bit before we had dinner with my family. We actually had nothing planned for the weekend because Lance worked overnight on Friday and Saturday. It was really easy going as I was suffering from pretty bad migraines over the last few days.

We had the pleasure in checking out the donuts at Modern Jelly. They have quite interesting flavors and I liked the fruity ones. They were ridiculously HUGE. It was an interesting experience even though donuts aren't my thing. If you live in Calgary you guys should try it out at least once. The pretty fuchsia pink accents are what drew me in to the place. Has anyone else tried it? What are your thoughts? I believe they have a store in Toronto as well. 


I recently bought this skirt in a sale at Forever 21 and I love the purple ombre look. The flowy top layer totally sealed the deal for me because it reminded me of the flowy dance skirts and the movement of this skirt is beautiful. I paired it with a simple loose white tee with a gold scallop necklace.


My shoes are Tell Me by Kenneth Cole Reaction. SUUUUPER comfy wedges. I love the faux snake skin detailing at the back and the ankle straps are convenient for me because the shoes doesn't fall off my feet. The rubber soles grip the floor so I don't feel like I'm tripping. Here's another picture of them.


 Hope everyone has a lovely week ahead!

L'oreal Paris Precious Oils

I won! I won!! Look at what I won. LOL.

I never win anything... But back in April or the beginning of May, L'oreal Paris Canada had a contest where you'd go online and click a button and it would instantly tell you if you were a winner or not (you could enter again the next day if you didn't win). I thought sure why not and I clicked it and instantly won! Insane! 

A month later they sent me a bubbled package to my door with my full size bottle of L'oreal Nutri Sleek Precious Oils. Mmm it smells heavenly on my hair. You apply a pump or 2 in your hands and rub it in to your hair (I would go for the tips as that's where our hair is most damage) for nourishment while it softens your hair and gives it a nice shine. The oil surprisingly gets soaked up in your hair really quickly so it doesn't feel oily. You could even do a strand test with an oil blotting sheet. Run the sheet through the ends and it won't leave a oily mark the way our face does. Crazy!

I honestly didn't think they would send me a bottle of it, but maybe just a coupon to bring into stores. Really happy that they sent out the bottles this way. Thank you L'oreal!
